For the first volume of Serial Sleuths, the non-profit organization selected to receive 100% of the profits from the sale of the e-book is Doctors Without Borders. Here is the thumbnail version of what Doctors Without Borders is all about (taken from their website), though they truly encompass a world more. To learn more about the organization, visit www.doctorswithoutborders.org.
Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971.
Today, MSF provides independent, impartial assistance in more than 60 countries to people whose survival is threatened by violence, neglect, or catastrophe, primarily due to armed conflict, epidemics, malnutrition, exclusion from health care, or natural disasters. MSF provides independent, impartial assistance to those most in need. MSF also reserves the right to speak out to bring attention to neglected crises, challenge inadequacies or abuse of the aid system, and to advocate for improved medical treatments and protocols.
In 1999, MSF received the Nobel Peace Prize.
